Materials and what they mean for the repair
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Blacknest. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Blacknest get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
What we cannot put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Failed support under the worktop
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in Blacknest
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Blacknest, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Blacknest questions
How much do I need to move?
Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
Do you come to Blacknest?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Blacknest. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
In most cases. A photo lets us check.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Windsor and Maidenhead.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will the repair match a patterned worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Repairing versus replacing in Blacknest
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
